About Kamloops

Kamloops, Canada’s Tournament Capital, is located at the confluence of the South and North Thompson Rivers in British Columbia’s semi-arid grasslands, and is a hotbed of outdoor activities.

Sandstone canyons, grasslands, and evergreen timberlands play host to incredible hiking, mountain biking, and camping. More than 100 lakes and two major rivers provide great fishing, kayaking, canoeing, rafting, and tubing.

Kamloops was named one of the top three GamesTown2010 communities for demonstrating its spirit and passion for sports and healthy living leading up to the 2010 Winter Games.

Not only an outdoor activity centre, Kamloops also takes pride in its vibrant arts community, represented in art galleries throughout the city, and theatre and music festivals and events held annually.
